General information
mk_postgres.pyruns commands as the Postgres database user withsu - $POSTGRESUSER ...This doesn't work when the users login shell is something like
/sbin/nologin. In this case you get "This account is currently not available."This patch runs commands with
su -s /bin/sh $POSTGRESUSER ...instead.
